A Day in York

I stayed in the historic city of York for the first time a few weeks ago and had a lovely time (besides the rain and icey wind)! It’s a quaint little city with fascinating architecture, old buildings and castles.

I spent the night in the Grand Hotel & Spa. It’s just 5 minutes by foot into the city center and a short walk away from the train station.

It was a cold and windy day in the city so before heading out to explore we decided to have breakfast in a cute little cafe.

The Baileys Cafe Tea Rooms in York. A delicious menu even offering an American breakfast of pancakes! I opted for a scone with clotted cream, jam and some tea. I need to eat scones whenever I’m in the UK!
